A statement signed by the Top 100 Jordanian figures says "The Syrian regime goes on to kill more people ,who are demanding freedom, dignity and justice. Here is the regime of Bashar al-Assad ,who committed massacres after the other, after the deaths of more than 15 thousand Syrians and the displacement of hundreds of thousands, the regime continues the killing by committing Hula massacre, followed by Alqabir massacre, and Dara massacre.
